TORONTO–Today Carrot Rewards announced that Canadians can now earn RBC Rewards points when they invest in their wellness by learning how to live healthier, and by achieving daily step goals with the Carrot Rewards app.
“Joining hands with one of our country’s largest banks provides us with a terrific opportunity to accelerate our shared vision to make a positive impact on the everyday lifestyles of Canadians,” said Andreas Souvaliotis, Chief Executive Officer, Carrot Rewards. “Adding RBC Rewards to the menu of choices on the Carrot Rewards app will further boost our platform’s unique relevance and popularity.”
